TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN.
The Canada Thistle.

This "evil weed" is the subject of
many dissertations annually. Here is the
sustance of the last we have seen: ''The
Canada thistle wEile subdued somewhat
by frequent and repeated mowings is not
often destroyed by this means alone. The
thistle root has numerous points, each
one of which has power to send up a
shoot, consequently while the main stalk
and its immediate root connections are
killed it does not follow that the numer-
Gus one rootFoints are likewise destroyed.
In fact, they seldom are, and herein lies
the secret Of the plants irrepressibility.
The best results are gained when the
thistles are but in their early bloom and
before the seeds have formed. 1t is also
well to cut during or just before a warm
rain.

A Remedy Against the CurcuIio.

II. r. B. recommends the following
plan for driving off the curculios from
plum and cherry trees, viz. To get a
quantity Of tar and an old iron pot, heat
the pot over fire and carry it to the
tree, put In some of the tar and hold the
pot SO that the tree is well smoked. This
is done as soon as the young fruit is set
and is repeated when the SCOT wears off.
There is no other plan so effective as
Earring the trees twice or three times a
day, with a sheet slit on one side so as to
cover the ground under the tree the
beetles are very inactive and fall to the
sheet, from which they are gathered and
put into an empty fruit can with some
water and little kerosene oil in it, by
which they are quickly killed. If with
this the plum trees are inclosed and some
fowls kept in the lot and fed there by
scattering meal about the trees one may
be sure of full crops of plums. -NeaO York

3 PHYSICIANS
FAILED.

The treatment of many thousands of cases
of those chronic weaknesses and distressing
ailments peculiar to females, at the Invalids
Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, n. Y,
has afforded a vast experience in nicely
adapting and thoroughly testing remedies
for the cure Of womans peculiar maladies.
Dr. Pferce's FavOrite Prescripti on
Is the outgrowth, or result, of this great
and valuable experience. Thousands of
testimonials, received from patients and
from physicians who have tested it in the
more aggravated and obstinate cases which
had baff1ed their skill. prove it to be the
most wonderful remedy ever devised for
the relief and cure of suffering women. 1t
Is not recommended as " cure-all," but
as a most perfect Specific for woman's
peculiar ailments.
AS a powerful, invigorating tonic,
it imparts strength to the whole system,
and to the uterus, or womb and its ap-
pendages, in particular. For overworked,

A Sunrise on Mt. Washington.

As we sat around the glowing coal fire
in the office Of the Summit House, the
principal topic of the evening was get
ting UP to see the sun rise, says a writer
in the C0ngregationa1ist. Some intended
to stay awake all night to make sure of
it, Others would dose in a CHI ir; still
others would depend on their friends to
arouse them. But the proprietor lifted
a load from all hearts by saying that at
half-past three a bell would be rung.
"Haif-past three, did he say - asked one
incredulous lady. "Why, the sun doesn't
rise until quarter to five ~ But we're
living on a higher plane now" said
another. And there IS more sun
shine"
The bell ringer kept his word, and at
the appointed time there was much
scrambling and hasty preparation, and
soon quite a respectable company
wrapped in shawls and overcoats, were
pacing the platform as on a winter morn
inc. A faint red on the horizon told US
where to direct our gaze. Bars of thin
clouds began to take on more pronounced
colors; heraIds of the coming light
streamed toward the zenith; thin, low
mist, which had shaped its way through
the winding valley, became golden. We
all stood silent in the excitement of eX-
pectatlon.
Just at ten minutes after four, the spell
was broken. Here it comesl - some one
shouted, as rim of gold came over the
horizons edge, and presently the massive
oblong hung suspended before our eyes.
But the grandest scenic effects were now
behind US. 1t was a sight beautiful be-
yond description, as peak after peak
caught the light and passed it on. All
colors were playing on these hills, from
the negative shadow to the richest tints
of purple and opaline. Every lake became
a surface of silver the roofs aud spires
of the surrounding villages glistened- So
clear and brilliant a sunrise we were told
had not been seen this summer.

crowds IN this state than has sx-Govsr-
